Japanese-style woodblock print depicts a man in a traditional samurai robe, holding a sword and an umbrella. The man is centered in the image. The man faces right; he has dark hair and wears a robe with a circular emblem on the left side and a wave pattern on the bottom hem. A sash wraps around his waist. He holds a sword at his side in his right hand and a closed umbrella above his head in his left hand. His feet are in geta. A small, out-of-focus figure stands behind him on the left. The background is mottled gray-brown. Japanese characters appear in the lower-right corner.
